The Global Military Logistics Market is estimated to reach $526 billion by 2030. In the US’s logistics market, the value is projected to increase by 40% between 2023 and 2030, reaching an all time high of $60.64 billion. Logistics services are an essential element for the functioning of the armed forces. Timely delivery supply of essential materials such as equipment, arms, and ammunition to the military bases for their sustained operations are vital for functioning. Effective logistics services act as pillars of the military around the globe.

United States has benefited from decades of largely uncontested logistics operations, but the character of war is changing.  It is essential to be prepared to fight and win in an environment in which access to key infrastructures such as waterways, ports, bridges, roads, airfields, and highways is disrupted, damaged, or nonexistent.  Amidst an increasingly complex geo-political threat landscape, DSI’s 4th Annual Assured Logistics Summit will aim to strengthen deterrence by improving logistics and sustainment support across the Department of Defense’s operations.

As the DoD recognizes it can no longer rely on operating in uncontested logistics environments, this year’s Assured Logistics Summit will explore how each of the services is adapting their approaches to enable mobility and freedom of movement, deliver resources and equipment, and sustain Warfighter operations at the point of need.  Attendees will have the opportunity to hear from, engage with, and ask questions of senior leaders across the defense logistics community to learn how the DOD is strengthening the security and resiliency of supply chains and improving efficiencies across logistics and transportation operations.  Speakers will examine efforts to integrate emerging and advanced capabilities such as AI, predictive analytics, renewable and sustainable energy sources, and autonomous technologies to reduce logistics demands, improve supply distribution, and provide power at the tactical edge.

Join us at the 2025 Summit to hear from senior leaders from across DoD, military services, academia, and industry about how they are looking to modernize logistics solutions to maximize the operational readiness and sustainment of the Warfighter.

Gain Education & Insight: Walk away with knowledge gained from our senior level speakers on some of the complex challenges facing the defense logistics community.

Build Partnerships: The agenda is designed to allow for ample networking opportunities and the ability to discover some of the latest military supply chain priorities of interest to the Federal Government and private sector partners.

Influence: Help foster ideas! Share your own insight and knowledge during our interactive sessions. All attendees are encouraged to address our speaker faculty and each other with their questions, comments or ideas.

 

DSI’s Summit directly supports Federal Government priorities by providing a conduit for officials to efficiently reach audiences outside of their respective offices that directly impact their department’s mission success, at no charge to the government, and in an efficient expenditure of time.

 

DSI’s Summit will provide a forum to address and improve internal and external initiatives, meet with and hear from partner organizations, disseminate vital capability requirements to industry, increase visibility within the larger community, and generally support their mission.

The Summit is open and complimentary to all DoD, IC, and Federal employees and is considered an educational training forum, and a widely attended gathering.

(Industry and academia members are charged a fee for admission.)
